Formatted contents note |
All my life, I have dealt with words. They are adequate for many of our purposes,indispensable for most. They can, of course, be immeasurably beautiful and graceful.<br/>But they can't do everything.<br/>This is a book about photographs. Pictures, if you like. Images, as its title would have it. All from the Los Angeles Times.<br/>Gathered as they are here, they are a testimonial to the power of the photograph to present a tapestry of California's history, told to the eye, in image that capture each event in the split second of its happening.<br/>Words can't do that.<br/>They can tell us that a popular President took time for a swim off Santa Monica beach and was surrounded by a friendly crowd. But the photograph grabs for us the instant of spontaneous electricity between a charismatic young leader and his clearly genuine admirers.<br/>Here also is a picture whose story needs few words: a forbidding sea, a young man on a beach trying to comfort a despairing young woman, while at the same time looking pasther at the waters that have taken their son.<br/>A paragraph or two in the news columns; volumes here.<br/>One more. We've read much about the Ku Klux Klan in California.One picture alone in this collection captures its menace: a line of hooded figures in flickering light,staring out through holes in white coverings, marching toward who knows what victim.Unforgettable.<br/>That word describes a book like this. Unforgettable. A look back through California'srich history through a medium where words are mere grace notes,and the photo is the message.<br/> |

Abstract, Summary, etc. |
241 photographs, including 12 in color. News photographs bring reality to life in a very special way. And for more than a hundred years the Los Angeles Times has published photographs of the people and events that shape our daily world. During the past six decades the paper has maintained its own staff of skilled men and women capable of shooting a crime scene, a Hollywood wedding, or a pier fire with equal dexterity. More than 225 of these extraordinary images of "our Times," including a Pulitzer Prize winner and a dozen color action photographs from the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, have been brought together in this book, a first collection of great photojournalism from the newspaper's pages. Seen together they make up a mini history of Southern California, from the Roarding Twenties to the Far-Out Eighties. (...) A preface by Wilson Thomas, the editor of the Times; an introduction by photo editor Jim Wilson, the man in charge of assigning stories to the photographers; and an anecdotal essay by Iris Schneider, herself a staff photographer, cap off a collection of visual delight, of nostalgia, history, and drama.<br/> |
